Years ago, after becoming an "adult", I realized I could start buying the cards I longed for as a kid. I saw the difference in the price of PSA 10 vs PSA 9 and thought, "A 9 is still MINT condition, I don't need the 10." And was able to buy a lot more of my favorite cards because of that decision.
@chrisolivo6591
@chrisolivo6591 Год назад
GemMint is the biggest scam in the hobby. Mint was always the gold standard in collectibles before there sports card grading companies created this artificial high end market with the GemMint. I collect like you do as my motto. Is, “A 9 is fine”. We have a Mint collection of cards, and the Rolen PSA 10 vs 9 example of centering that Chris shows in the video confirms my opinion of PSA 10 cards.

More than half the people in this hobby collect plastic and what's typed on the paper slip in the plastic than they do cards. Buying / getting 10s is all that matters to them, as long as the slab tells them it's a "10".

@chrisolivo6591 Год назад
It always amazes me when I goto a local show and I’m looking to sell my doubles to dealers. They don’t even look at the card, if it’s a PSA 9, they look up comps for a PSA 9 and that’s their comp price. It could under graded or over graded, and all that matters is the PSA grade.
@mikedovell3339
@mikedovell3339 Месяц назад
I understand you can maximize your cardboard by buying 9s but having 10s to me is more important. Also, if you want top dollar for your investment, then 10s are the way to go. Most older collectors aren't trading, they just want what they want.

And this absolutely speaks to my philosophy as a collector. If I have a valued and treasured card in raw form that looks gem mint to me I'll leave it that way. Having it graded and coming back a 9 only diminishes it. Throw in the cost of grading and that makes that 9 even worse. I have bought some 9s and 10s but I'm happy with my raw collection too. I'm a collector saving money and working on a limited budget. Great video that leaves one to pause and consider.

While I wholeheartedly agree with the sentiment of this video, I’m gonna play devils advocate and take it a step further. Specifically let’s look at all of those cards from about 87-early 90s, junk era. You can buy the 10s for hundreds of dollars, the 9s for 10s of dollars, or a beautiful looking raw version for a dollar or two. This is why I don’t collect graded. Even the Kirby rookie, should be able to find a real sharp looking one for about $15. Randy Johnsons, Biggios etc? $1.

I've been collecting sports cards for 30yrs now and have never bought a 10. I only buy psa 9s and sometimes 8s. The cost of psa 10s to me is extreme. A psa 9 card is considered mint and that's what matters to me. On any given day a 9 can be a 10 and a 10 can be a 9 depending on the grader that's grading the card. I'm surprised more people don't appreciate psa 9s more considering that it means the cards Mint! Also feel the gap in price between the two is far to large. Thanks for the content!

I had 100s of cards graded from my collection, mostly junk wax era, in the last 2-3 years. I sold most of the PSA 10s, all the basketball, kept a few 10s and bought 50s mid grade baseball HOFers. The 10s are creating false scarcity, when you often can’t tell the difference between a 9 and a 10.

@donaldwaters4615
@donaldwaters4615 Год назад
PSA does not grade fair for this reason. If you send in a card for their basic grading service, they won't give you a 10 simply because they charge their grading fee based on the card's graded value. They limit the graded card value at 499.00 for their basic service. So if you send in a card that is worth $725 as a 10, but only $50 as a 9, they'll grade it a 9 because you didn't pay for a premium grading service. The final grade should not depend on how much you pay. BGS does not charge their grading fee based on final grade value. Simply on the time frame or if you want the sub categories shown on the card.

I have a TON of PSA 9's (in a few eras) and, for some odd reason, SGC 4's (almost all vintage of course). Eye appeal is important for me, but always different from person to person. I don't mind something slightly off centered as long as the corners are sharp and it doesn't have any noticeable print defects. Or if it does have print defects, I prefer it to be better centered. Just some tradeoffs that we all go through as collectors.

Not disagreeing with you and Mike. But I always believe in buying the best you can afford for your collection. As collectors we get into this mentality as buy for your enjoyment vs not wanting to look like an investor which I don’t understand. We eventually have to sell or let go of our collection whether it’s because of financial reasons or mortality. Why not take the chance of maximizing that when you get the chance. I also think this might be a good topic to talk about in a podcast? It would be way too long here in the comments section.

What is crazy to me is that almost all of the cards even graded a 9 sell for far less then the PSA $19 grading cost even if you are a $100 a year collectors club member! Like why would anyone even send those cards in to be graded. PSA needs to lower their fees for real. Card gets graded a 9 from that era and it sells for half of the grading cost/ Thats absurd. If PSA wants to continue to have real business they are gonna need to knock down the grading costs to like $10 a card. I have all of these cards and i know all of them are a 9 and some would be a 10 but why send them in. If they all get 9s i lose money, alot especially after shipping there and back and insurance. The difference between 9s and 10s cannot be seen with the naked eye at all.

Don't mean to be a contrarian (excellent video and discussion) but for some collectors interested in handing off a more manageable and valuable set of cards to the next generation, the emphasis on quality over quantity may be the way to go. One could do both...using the "9s approach for sports or eras that you are most interested in as a collector" and the "10's approach" to a find a few high end examples of cards from sports or eras of relevance but less immediate interest...

Fantastic video. One of your best and that's saying a whole lot. You could have added Bonds, McGwire, Sosa and Clemens and still stayed under the $725. So I think you made a REALLY compelling case that for a collector with a reasonable budget, the PSA 9s are a MUCH better value. But here's another question... Which would be a better INVESTMENT long term? Tough one but I'm going with the PSA 9s. To me there is a much better chance that a lot of those cards double in price (from say $10-12 to $20-30) compared to hoping that the Puckett doubles in price to $1500. I could very well be wrong. But at the very least those 9s should hold their value. I fear that may not be the case on that Puckett

The grading companies continue to be disgustingly greedy in my opinion. Grading scale 1-10 you could say you have a 10% chance to make a huge profit if you get a 10. You lose money on grading fee alone with a 90% chance on the majority of the cards in the video with any grade of 9 and under. Ridiculous! People please stop grading cards at least for a few months to wake up these greedy companies. They haven't adjusted down on grading fees with the market nearly enough.

Excellent video. I liked how you showed many cards so quickly at the current prices. Exactly what I’m interested in since I have so many vintage cards

This!!! Great topic Chris, and exposing one of the great myths in collecting. Unless you are a high end dealer or rich 10s are overpriced and irrelevant. 9s are great for 80s and up and most of the time you couldn’t tell the difference. For vintage I simply go with a “collectors grade” of 7 for 70s, 6 for 60s, and so on. Obviously for the big ticket players you get whatever you can afford. Even if you’re a collector who wants to maintain value in your collection, get the grade right before the biggest price jump. Off the top of my head I think of the SP Jeter. I would buy the PSA8 at $600. 90% or more of collectors aren’t going to dish out the $8000 for a 9, so if you ever wanted to move it, that 8 grade is going to be in high demand for the largest swath of buyers. Just my perspective and opinion, but great stuff!

Well being graded cards are just a personal opinion on the condition of a card and will change from company to company and even year to year with the grading company, people that pay the high price for 10 or frankly any graded card to me is just odd . However being im a collector and dont care if the cards i have are worth anything or not I guess my take is not important.

Is there a possibility of a market correction on PSA 9's to get closer to a 10 value. 15 times difference seems like a pretty large delta for one spot off in grading.

There is a possibility but I probably would not predict it

Collecting PSA 9s for hall of farmers is a great strategy. I also like to find my PC players in PSA 10 for their less expensive non-rookies. I will put the first bid in and set the max bid at $20 or $30 and then just see what I end up winning. I have ended up with a ton of cheap PSA 10 Griffeys, Jrods, Lillards, Carrs, and other guys in my PC. Most of these I would have never sought out individually but are nice editions for my PC.
